The central question in the book is how the self can respond to those challenges and how dialogue can help the individual to deal with them in an open-minded way. On the assumption that society and self are intensely interconnected, the neglection of dialogue in the public domain is not separated from dialogical processes in the self. Therefore, the focus of the book is on the question of how generative dialogue can empower and \u003cem\u003eenrich\u003c\/em\u003e the self so that it is better equipped to give appropriate responses to the mentioned problems of our time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\tThe basic structure of the book is an identity model consisting of four levels: individual, group, human, and ecological. Traditionally, the emphasis in both psychology and daily life is on individual and group identities with the simultaneous neglection of human and ecological identities. The basic message of the book is that individual and group levels can be and should be \u003cem\u003etranscended \u003c\/em\u003eby the human and ecological identity levels. This leads to a series of educational guidelines intended to create dialogical relationships between and within the selves of different people, with special attention to the merits of the human and ecological identities. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;\"\u003eHubert J.M.
